Explanation:


https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/AuroraMySQL.Managing.FaultInjectionQueries.html

"You can test the fault tolerance of your Amazon Aurora DB cluster by using fault injection queries.

Fault injection queries are issued as SQL commands to an Amazon Aurora instance and they enable you to schedule a simulated occurrence of one of the following events: A crash of a writer or reader DB instance A failure of an Aurora Replica A disk failure Disk congestion When a fault injection query specifies a crash, it forces a crash of the Aurora DB instance. The other fault injection queries result in simulations of failure events, but don't cause the event to occur.

When you submit a fault injection query, you also specify an amount of time for the failure event simulation to occur for."
